(Brief information about the trek, travel places)

The Kaldurg fort is just 6 km from Palghar station. The height of the Kaldurg Fort is around 1500 feet and it takes about an hour to reach the fort top from the base. This is a great jungle trek, and the monsoon is the best season to visit. The trek is in easy grade and easy endurance level. Waghoba Temple is the base village. You can easily reach Waghoba temple from Palghar station by ST or Tamtam. There are many monkeys at Waghoba temple, so beware of them.

Features of the fort and places to visit 

As the top of the fort is a square shape, the fort is easily recognizable from nearby places. The fort top is smaller than half an acre and must be used for surveillance. There are water tanks (two) and a few steps to reach the top of the fort.

On the west to the fort is the Arabian Sea, on the north is the Devkhop Dam and Asawa fort, on the northeast is the Asherigad fort, on the east is the river Surya and Kohoj fort and on the south are some mountain ranges and Tandulwadi fort. Although the fort top is small, if you're here with the small group, have a tent and enough food and water then you can stay here for the night.
